Ordered pizza last night. Pizza guy saw the beauty tanks in the back of the room and went "Snakes, huh?" And proceeded to say how they creep him out, and how a friend ran out of mice and put a gerbil or hamster in with his king snake and how the gerbil or hamster chewed the hell out of the poor thing who never ate again. People love to tell you ( Read more... )

I am absolutely terrified of snakes, but I adore the snake-art in your FAQ.

Wow, really? If I knew that, I keep forgetting because of your screenname and icon! And thank you. :) My fave is still the movie star ball python on there... he's so cute with his lil water bottle and sunglasses.

My snake-phobia is kind of like your eyeball phobia ... I don't think any rationalization can help. But I also think your art is brilliant. :)

I've wanted a snake for about seven years now D: just never been in the situation where I could properly care for one. What I REALLY want are some carpet pythons (which I may or may not have already named Nokomis and Nehanda) but I figure I'll be responsible and start with something smaller, like a ball python (which I may or may not have already named Vasuki...).

I wanted a snake forever, then suddenly realized one day I didn't live with my Mom anymore and that Karen was totally cool with getting a snake. We got ourselves a cute lil corn snake. It was all downhill from there! They're addictive... like tattoos ( ... )

Ohmagaw, I'm in class, so I'm going to log on and add you NOW. Hah! Don't tell, but I rolled Zhoey's sister on your server, too >.> Loantaka T'savi, priestess extraordinaire. Oh, and if you ever want RP, come pester Zhoey or Rukmini. They love meeting new folks :D

If snakes are like tattoos, then I'm screwed. I have my next three tattoos planned, and have two already. Oy, the apartment I'm looking at doesn't allow pets, but I may have to get one and be sneaky about it. I'm definitely going to be coming to you for herpetological advice :p

Lol! I liked my bank Shammy so much I rolled her on Sisters of Elune too XD I need to figure out Labrys's character aside from lesbian warrior who likes big ass two-edged axes. I think Doshas is Kahani's mom. *grins* I just got that RP addon... I forget what it's called, the one with the profiles? Lerve it. Gonna be doing more RPing, especially after Kahani finally gets that damn artisan riding skill ( ... )

It needed putting up. ^_^ SOoooOOooo many snake sites are designed by... well, guys who think presenting snakes as a scary thing is cool. I really wanted to set up Blue Gorgon as something soothing, pleasant, and the softer side of herps.
